Friday Feature & GIVEAWAY: Crimson Hill

With Mother's Day just around the corner, I really wanted to share one of my favorite soap shops with you. Angie is the owner of Crimson Hill Soaps & Scents, offering natural handmade soaps, body scrubs, lotions, lip balms, party favors, and more.

How did Angie start making soap? Hear it in her words:Most everyone has sensitive skin in my family, especially my daughter. From the age of 2, she has had trouble with any store-bought cream, lotion, balm, etc. and she is now 10 years old. A friend suggested I try natural soap. We did and it helped within days and I knew this would be something we would always have to use. From that point, I started researching how to make my own natural soap and completely taught myself how to do it. It took several attempts to get a batch that even resembled soap, but now we have refined our recipes down to perfection!

This makes a wonderful and thoughtful Mother's Day gift, and you can choose 3 of Mom's favorite scents with the Soap Sampler.

Crimson Hill's section of kids party favors is fun, fresh and unique. How did this Angel Faces line begin, and how did Angie's kids play a part in its formation? Here is Angie's story:My Angel Faces line was formed because of my daughter's sensitive skin. I thought, if she had to use natural soap and I was going to make it, then why not make it kid-friendly in fun shapes? There are so many kids with skin issues ranging from mild eczema and dryness to full-blown severe eczema and psoriasis. If using soap in the shape of a Lego or Cupcake makes bath time easier and a little more fun and it can help soothe their skin, then I feel like I accomplished something!

This is what Angie says sets Crimson Hill apart from other handmade soaps:What I feel sets me apart is product selection and quality. I pride myself on offering a wide range of products for everyone. From fun Lego Soaps for boys and cute Ladybug Soaps for girls, to Sugar Scrubs and Body Creams for women and Shaving Soap for men, I have something for everyone and within every budget.

My newest addition to the line-up this year has been custom Soap Party Favor Packs and bulk mini soaps. These items have sold phenomenally and I am always adding new themes!Mothers deserve to be pampered. I asked Angie what her best selling Mother's Day soap scent is and why she thinks it's best for pampering. Here is what she said:I sell lots of gift sets, perfumes and soaps for Mother's Day. The most popular scent is Indulgence because it is just pretty and feminine without being overly perfumed. It is a lovely blend of Jasmine & Light Citrus.

Angie is a mother herself, so I asked her what her most memorable Mother's Day has been so far. Here's her reply:Even though they are all special, my most memorable Mother's Day would have to be the first one after my daughter was born. There is just something extra special about getting your first Mother's Day card! Since then, I love getting all the little homemade gifts and cards that my kids make for me each year. They are truly my most cherished and treasured item!
